Hey Okie, I’m a young head out west who can’t get enough of the shows you post. Thanks so much for what you do ⚡️ I really appreciate it ☮️

[@OkieDeadhead]

You are so welcome

[@jaylick4562]

Good for you kid . I like hearing about young fans

[@onthebus11]

Quantitative Quality through and through Thank-you

[@cosmonaut9942]

I was there. A lot of Hells Angels in the audience which was weird when you're high, but it was epic. First Terrapin at this show, and they were on top of their game, very tight, because they had just finished recording Terrapin Station in Van Nuys right before the concert. It and Winterland in March '77 were a couple of my favorite shows ever. I saw every show on the West Coast in '77, an epic year. Oh, to be 23 years old again. Good memories.

[@blewwsviews6346]

lucky you.... how tempting it must have been in those days to follow them when you were young.

[@brianvaughan2134]

I was at this show. The boys were really on their game. The crowd was very focused, I felt that almost everyone was dosed. Bob Hunter was leaning over an amp up on the stage watching the whole thing unfold.

[@treyfisse8593]

If Terrapin doesnt make you float into an unknown space you aren’t doing it right.

[@lincolnmarkman]

When it was played on this date,Terrapin was a rare and different tune

[@LarreeHollywood]

First Terrapin. IWT.

[@rizdog2]

Amazing show. Was at Winterland three weeks late; top of their game. Not that folks need reminding but Phil’s absolute genius is on full display on this recording. Thank you.

[@claytonwheatley103]

[@angelafitzpatrick3149]

Thanks Okie!!!

[@widescreennavel]

It is fascinating to hear the massive amount of energy and focus they had in '77. It is undeniable they were playing with a new and different energy...whatever it was due to, it slowly waned over the year. I love each iteration of the band, but this period is most interesting. I know Jerry got a massive infection at some point but the changes in the music were inevitable since change was the Dead's most important element. But the snap to the few months of this golden year are truly remarkable. This might be the most underrated band of all time.

[@angelafitzpatrick3149]

Thanks again Okie!!!

[@andreasschneider828]

Still is among the best vibrations on planet earth...at least to my ears❤

[@brianpapale376]

'77..my personal fav..What a set list and sound quality

[@lyserguy6939]

Many thanks from the Canadian Deadheads!!!!!

[@spuddougherty7860]

Such a crucial show to have in the collection in the 80s and 90s

[@clintlanier8534]

I’m relatively new to the music and this was years before I was even born. But this has to be one of the best ever, dare I say better than Cornell...

[@OkieDeadhead]

Clint The Dead has so many good shows. I've listened to Cornell 77 so many times and it is good but so many more shows. Join us on Sundays at 7pm CST to hear a treat for the week. Good Deadheads and God Conversation about songs.

[@unsavorydiplomat1559]

You’ll find many more gems...many more...This is a pretty fire show tho.

[@lefjasernbla5000]

HEADY as all can be, Okie!! Absolute classic show right here ladies and gentlemen. Not much more to say than that my friends! 💓🤍💙😎

[@danosullivan7239]

One of my favorite shows. Thanks

[@danielcoupe7002]

This is a great show-start to finish,i like the way they played terrapin first to introduce the new songs off the terrapin station album- estimated prophet also...Jerrys in good voice too- GO DEAD!!

[@olddude427]

I know everyone may say this but I was there. Awesome place to see live rock. Saw so many of the Great Bands there. Cozy little place. It's long since gone, a plane crashed directly into it. The Berdo Fairgrounds

[@LarreeHollywood]

I was there, too. One of the best Dead shows I ever saw. Hells Angels and Hippies on acid, oh my!

[@olddude427]

@@LarreeHollywood i was one of those guys in F section from Fontana at the time. We all sure knew how to party.

[@LarreeHollywood]

One of the greatest parties ever. We were down in the front and it was so packed. It was crazy fun!

[@johnhall5690]

Okay Google! Have some respect. Three random ads interrupting Terrapin? Really!? Otherwise thanks Oakie. Great shows. Thanks for tempering my sanity in these trying times. I so miss those late 70s early 80s days!

[@EugeneAxe]

Google aren't known for being respectful. They're sell outs, and they sold their soul to the devil.

[@erictalkington5674]

For some, Cornell 77 is their favorite Dead show. Others say Dick's Picks 10 is their favorite. Not sure of the date, but I have it and in the booklet it says many consider it the best show the Dead ever did. For me, this is my favorite Dead show of all time! It was my first bootleg I ever bought and I got it on CD first and then I found it on cassette tape! I believe, but I do not know for fact, that this was the only show they ever opened with Terrapin Station. It was also the first time they ever played Terrapin AND Estimated Prophet! The Terrapin, Eyes, Dancin, Help/slipknot/Franklin's are some of the best ever! Thanks for sharing! Someone down below said this is Dick's Picks 29? I guess that's what they meant. They just wrote Dick's Picks 29 so I don't know for sure. Maybe that's just their favorite.

[@charlie.something]

well said sir. this insane help>slip>frank is why I am a head. truly beautiful. Garcia is a monster. shakedown 8/3/82.

[@erictalkington5674]

@@charlie.something dude, I hear ya. I'm not even a huge fan of Franklin's, but it sounds good, but the help>slipknot is music at its finest. I don't even discuss music with people that are into new stuff anymore. No matter how much I try to explain that combo, or Allman Brothers Fillmore East show or any other number of things, there are just some people who are incapable of ever understanding. When I discovered the late 70's Dancin I about lost my mind. I heard the 60's/early 70's version but this song finding it so early in my Dead adventures was awesome! I cannot sit still while it is playing. I've tried lol. I was fortunate enough a few years into my Dead collecting when I met a dude who told me about archive.org and it was when they still had the soundboards. He was burning certain years onto cd and I did others and we would fill up CD books and trade them and copy what the other had! I have so many shows from that it's crazy! Everything from 65-95 and even a bunch of stuff like acid tests, rehearsals for a new studio album, a whole album of just jams I've never heard anywhere else from them like the Stonehouse rehearsals is one, I have albums of new piano/keyboard players rehearsaling with the band in the beginning of their tenure, I have several things like the Grateful Dead movie, I have it's soundtrack AND I have all of the shows from that run in Winterland that they selected from for the soundtrack. I have the 2 Egypt 78 shows in their entirety and so much more. I literally hit the jack pot. About the time we got burnt out from constantly downloading shows they took off the soundboards and I think all of mine except maybe a couple are SB's. I have about 958 CD's worth of Dead! They have so much talent that these so called musicians of today look like a person doing shitty karaoke at a dive bar lol.

They were still experminting with Terrapin around this time. Also...it was brand new. They weren't exactly sure where it was going to go in the sets. They weren't even sure,right here, how many and which verses they were going to use. Miss them days. "Stopped to decide which way to go. . . ."🌹🌹

Without a doubt now under rated and somewhat being forgotten in that the entire world seems to on its wind down prior to the death rattle it will be letting go with as it's very close to giving up the Ghost. Going out with a whimper . Never thought I'd be in the Generation to see it happen. Get right God. Looked like it's all gonna come true very shortly.

[@danielhutchinson7115]

Jerry is very Good here. But , compared to the guitarist he would be in another 15 yrs is very easy to notice.
